Saturday, November 10th.  9:30 am – 3:00 pm

(Tacoma)  If you are in college or in grades 6-12 and would like find out about animal care and education careers at a zoo or aquarium, this event is for you!  The day will be filled with special presentations by zoo and aquarium keepers (including animal feeds and training demonstrations), and behind-the-scenes tours (space is very limited).  Jobs in zoos, aquariums and other wildlife organizations encompass a wide range of activities–from basic animal care to behavior training, public education, research and breeding programs for endangered species. Career Day participants will have opportunities to talk with PDZA Keepers, Veterinarians and Educators, learn more about their work and find out what it takes to be competitive in this field.  This event is FREE to students in 6th grade through college.
